About the Author

Legendary figures in the body of Christ, Charles (1920—2010) and Frances (1916—2009) Hunter were known around the world as two of the most anointed and energetic evangelists on earth. The Happy Hunters, as they were affectionately dubbed, ministered in 49 nations around the world; everywhere, including the United States, they witnessed awesome healings. In one service in Bogotá, Colombia, they saw 100 people get out of wheelchairs in an incredible display of the power of God.

Charles and Frances Hunter made famous what are known as "Healing Explosions," large–scale, citywide campaigns in which the key focus is to pray for the sick to be healed. Countless thousands have been saved, healed, and filled with the Holy Spirit through their ministry. Many thousands have been trained to heal the sick, thus multiplying the healing message like liquid gold spreading across the globe.

They appeared on Regis and Kathie Lee, The Tom Snyder Show, Benny Hinn's This Is Your Day program, DayStar TV Network, CBS's 60 Minutes program, TBN, CBN, Cornerstone TV, Primetime TV, and many other national TV programs and networks. They authored over fifty best–selling books, including How to Heal the Sick, which has been translated into so many languages that 85% of the world can read this incredible book in their native languages. They also produced videos/DVDs with hours of instruction and teaching on this subject, which have also been translated into many languages of the world, reaching the globe with their life–changing message.

As recently as 2007, the Hunters hosted the history–making Worldwide Day of Healing. Thousands of churches participated across the country and around the world via satellite. Reports flooded in of people being healed of all kinds of diseases and afflictions, including blindness, multiple sclerosis, lupus, cancer, and numerous other diseases.

Two obedient people with hearts sold out to God listened to their heavenly Father and spread His Word, His grace, His mercy, and His healing power wherever they went. Their zeal for everything God had to offer was contagious. Everyone who met them or heard them speak was forever changed. This dynamic duo continues to share their incredible anointing in the area of healing and to minister the baptism in the Holy Spirit through their books, audios, and videos.

Their daughter, Joan Hunter Murrell, has taken over the leadership of Hunter Ministries since the passing of her mother, Frances Hunter, in July of 2009. Joan traveled with Charles and Frances for over thirty–five years and copastored a church in Dallas for eighteen years. Joan currently lives in Pinehurst, Texas, where her ministry is located.

5.0 out of 5 stars It works in Brazil, too!, August 18, 2002

By 

Carlos A. Oliveira (Stockton, California USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: How To Heal The Sick (Paperback)

In 1996, I was invited to teach in a Spiritual Warfare Bible College in Goiania, Brazil. During that year I was given one of Charles and Frances Hunter's books entitled, "How to Heal the Sick". That little book made such an impact in my life as I began to pray for the sick everywhere and they were getting healed. I recall studying and applying the principles described in the book, and teaching and encouraging my students to do the same. Some of the students got healed during the classes after experiencing God's power, then they themselves began to pray for people outside the classroom: in their homes, in churches, in hospitals, and on the streets. People were getting healed on a daily basis! They were being healed from all kinds of sicknesses and diseases as well as delivered from Satan's bondage.

5.0 out of 5 stars General evaluation of How to Heal the Sick, September 15, 2005

By

(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: How To Heal The Sick (Paperback)

1. Is this an in depth presentation?

Charles and Francis are on a mission! They want all believers in Jesus Christ to be able to heal the sick, cast out devils and to operate in the supernatural. This is their motivation for writing How to heal the sick and they make it clear in chapter 1: Double vision for a single mission.
Their main aim for writing this book was to increase the faith of the readers while introducing them to various aspects of the healing ministry. The book is a good introduction to the healing ministry, covering various ways of healing and many testimonies. I would not regard the book as an in depth representation.

2. Did I agree with the way that the author interprets scripture?

Yes! I especially appreciated the way Francis interprets the story of Elijah's "death" in chapter 7. The principle is that just as Elisha SAW Elijah being taken up to heaven and because of that received the double portion, so we too must continually look at our situations with spiritual eyes. We must apply our faith to Holy Spirit inspired visions and persevere until it comes to past.
It is also clear that Charles and Francis interprets scripture by applying a childlike faith, thereby gaining access to power of God. It is reading, interpreting and applying scripture in this way that has the power to save lives.

3. Was there any new information?

This book has been a rehash of many of the things that I have learnt so far this year. Even so, there were a few things that were new information to me:
* The discussion in Chapter 18 about the benefits and healing achieved by growing out arms and legs.
* The revelation in Chapter 7 of Elisha "seeing" his destiny was not altogether new (it was covered in the book by David Yonggi Cho called The Fourth Dimension), but I found it to be very helpful.
* The discussion in Chapter 6 about SPEAKING to the mountain. Francis emphasises that it is not "Whatsoever ye pray" but "Whatsoever ye say unto the mountain" that will bring results.
* I also found Chapter 5 - Let the sick lay hands on you - very interesting.

4. What impact did the book have on me?

Francis and Charles are spirit filled and anointed and boy, do they know it!! If they are not speaking to the mountain, they are laying hands on the sick or having the sick lay hands on them! What I took from this book is a whole dosage of faith. Faith that God wants to heal people. Faith that God wants us to be acquainted with the supernatural and want us to flow in it as if it is natural. Once again, I was impressed with God's heart towards people. God is so generous with His healing power and I just sense that God wants all his children to flow in the power so that He can heal the whole world!
